Chapter 3308 Work together to make a big cake(2/2)

After all, there are a few people who truly have great courage and great concentration.

After that time, no matter how great the grief is, it will fade with time. No matter how great the suffering is, it will not reduce a person's physiological needs, and no matter how great the humiliation is, it will not stop the arrival of sleep.

Especially when Wei Yan broke the fragile mental balance of Cao Ying and Gao Rou and others like a flying fairy in the sky, degeneration was naturally inevitable. Once it began to depravity, Cao Ying and Gao Rou and others would quickly find various reasons and excuses for themselves.

Just like this time...

"I'm for the Han Dynasty! For the real prosperity of the Cao family!" Cao Ying said seriously, "Really! This battle cannot be fought again! Jizhou has a severe drought, and Yuzhou is not much better. Now there is a shortage of food and grass. If it continues, the Cao family will definitely bear the infamy of the world! At that time... instead of doing so, it's better for the two ministers to stop the army now! Since I am a member of the Cao family, I should plan for the future of the Cao family! Think for the people of Hebei and Henan! For the people of the world! Now, there is only a truce and a stop to the army!"

Wei Yan did not show any expression, but observed Cao Ying carefully, "So... do you want to have a peace talk?"

'That's true!' Cao Ying nodded and said, with a strong spirit, 'It is not a blessing for the world to be powerful and powerful! The general entered Shandong and saw that Shandong is now...'

Cao Ying's momentum suddenly decreased, and then he barely raised it up again, "Even if Shandong is suffering from drought, it is still a large population. In such a situation, what can we do if the General of the Cavalry comes?"

Wei Yan sneered, "Why, I think my lord can't beat Shandong?"

"No, no, no, no, no!" Cao Ying waved his hands, "The nobles are extraordinary and outstanding, and wise. How can this mere land in Shandong stop the nobles? But... General, you have also seen that the drought is severe now, and our food and grass have been plundered and sent to the front line. If the general hadn't happened to come here, the people of Jizhou were suffering and moved some food and grass to help the people's livelihood, it would be inevitable that the red wilderness would be thousands of miles away! And these food and grass are just dropping off the bucket... General, think about it, if the cavalry really came to Shandong, the drought, would the cavalry save or not? "

"Yeah." Wei Yan frowned, and after a moment, he glanced at Cao Ying.

Cao Ying shivered, and a cold sweat broke out from the back of his neck subconsciously, "General, is he murderous intent?"

Wei Yan's eyes turned, and the originally cold aura suddenly dissipated, "No, how could it be?"

"General, I'll tell the truth. Even if the cavalry came and killed us, they wouldn't be able to raise food..." Cao Ying looked sad, "Who could have thought of such a drought? Now this drought cannot be what we can do?! Now this food and grass are eaten one day, and every minute is less. The little food and grass we moved out is millions of people in Jizhou, and one bowl of porridge is not enough... So this battle cannot be fought, and we must stop. Yes, we must stop!"

Wei Yan laughed twice and said bluntly: "You don't have food and grass, it's all my business?! According to you, I should have planned for the lord!"

Cao Ying retorted, "The general's words are wrong! Stop the war is beneficial to both sides!"

"Hmph, you said." Wei Yan shook his feet, obviously not very convinced of what Cao Ying said about "win-win".

"General... In the past, Zhou Dynasty was not strong, but only Qi, Chu, Qin and Jin were strong. At the beginning of Jin, Duke Xian died, and the country was in chaos. Duke Mu of Qin was far away and did not form an alliance with China. King Cheng of Chu first acquired the Jingman land, and the barbarians were not allowed to come. Only Qi was the alliance between China, and Duke Huan could declare his virtue, so the princes met..." Cao Ying said slowly, "General should we know it?"

"Speaking human words." Although Wei Yan probably understood Cao Ying's meaning and put his feet in a straightened manner, he still asked Cao Ying to say it more clearly, "I am a rough man and I can't understand those literary words!"

Cao Ying laughed and did not laugh at Wei Yan. Instead, he explained to Wei Yan with Duke Huan of Qi as an example...

In fact, what Cao Ying said is very simple.

At that time, Duke Huan of Qi was able to unify the alliance among the chaotic countries and become one of the overlords of the Spring and Autumn Period, not relying on absolute military strength advantages, but also paying attention to political means. The Beixing Alliance was obviously the best manifestation of this political means. The countries in the alliance were definitely not living in harmony. On the contrary, there were still many contradictions and hatreds left behind in history. However, why Duke Huan of Qi was able to successfully join the alliance under such conditions and then let the whole country work together to become the leader of the martial arts world, it is reliable to be the four-character true secret of "making a big cake".

The same is true for Jizhou and Yuzhou. They originally had conflicts and competitions with each other, and there was no harmony. However, under the oppression of the external force of the cavalry, the originally loose and messy situation would gather...

Therefore, if the Cavalry is unwilling to quit, or march into Shandong, it is very likely that a large number of people will have difficulty in survival in the case of a severe drought. At that time, the second or third generations of Chen and Wu roar, and the anti-Qin situation of the six countries may be repeated. How many soldiers and horses will the Cavalry have to be suppressed everywhere? At that time, just like the Former Qin Dynasty, all counties in the world will be the Cavalry on the surface. When there is the Cavalry Army, everyone is a good citizen, and wait for the army to leave...

After hearing this, Wei Yan frowned and thought for a long time.

Although Wei Yan also knew that Cao Ying's words might not be true, it has to be said that Cao Ying's rhetoric pointed out a relatively serious problem, which made Wei Yan feel that it is necessary to report to Fei Qian...

Wei Yan's eyes rolled, then changed his smile, "I don't understand these things! I'll ask you where the benefits you want to give me?"

Cao Ying looked at Wei Yan and seemed a little hesitant, but at the end he gritted his teeth and took out a piece of silk from his arms.

"Is this?" Wei Yan asked.

Cao Ying reached out helplessly and handed the towel to Wei Yan, "This is...ah, this is the city defense of Yecheng..."

Before he finished speaking, Cao Ying felt that his hands were empty.
